Homestays have been a trademark of CYA since its infancy. Thanks to the careful work of  the Student Affairs department, they have been a huge success.

The homestay experience is not simply an alternative to our CYA apartments; it is an enrichment of the study abroad experience, an immersion in Greek culture and the Greek family lifestyle, and an opportunity to develop life-long relationships and a second home halfway across the world.

Each semester, CYA matches students who have indicated an interest in the program with a host family with complementary interests, lifestyles, or hobbies. Homestay accommodations depend on availability and on student profiles.
